Eye Candy

TOUR LAVENDER LOCATIONS, each with its own selection of different varieties of lavender, and each with its own activities arranged for the event. At lavender farms, you can cut your own bouquets of fresh lavender; at nurseries, you can purchase specialty lavender plants and speak to experts on growing and cultivating lavender. Each location has special events planned for the festive weekend.

Can't decide?!

If you need planning your weekend, our tour finder page will help you choose locations based upon events and offerings. Our maps page will give you directions.

These lavender-based farms and nurseries, some not open any other time during the year, will be throwing their doors open to the public as their lavender is blooming. Tour the lavender farms and nurseries to enjoy the beauty and scents of lavender; enjoy the journey as you travel through Oregon's pastoral countryside to each destination.

Each location has different activities arranged for the weekend, ranging from lavender bouquet cutting to mini-festivals with music, food, and vendors, so be sure to visit our tour finder page to help you decide which locations to visit. Entry to each location is free.

While you are thinking lavender, plan to visit the Pacific Northwest's only Lavender Collection and Demonstration Garden, located in Central Point, near Medford.
